ID: 49746 Updated by: bjori@php.net Reported By: bz at datenkueche dot com -Status: Open +Status: Verified -Bug Type: Documentation problem +Bug Type: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Interesting that it doesn't show up there in the search. However. You can use php.net/classname.methodname http://php.net/domelement.getelementsbytagname for example works fine Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-10-02 09:54:40] bz at datenkueche dot com Description: ------------ I'm teaching PHP and we do many things with DOM. When my students try to get the documentation for "getElementsByTagName" at http://php.net they get the PHP4 documentation for "get_elements_by_tagname". The php.net search does not know "getElementsByTagName". My students are not stupid and I told them already how to dearch for DOM PHP5 methods - but they still don't find it. I already reported this documention bug some years ago but it was marked as "not a bug". The javascript syntax is nearly the same and I can direct my students to selfhtml but makes not much sense. Bernhard Reproduce code: --------------- http://de.php.net/manual-lookup.php?pattern=getElementsByTagName&lang=en Expected result: ---------------- http://de.php.net/manual/en/domdocument.getelementsbytagname.php Actual result: -------------- http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.domelement-get-elements-by-tagname.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49746&edit=1
